When do you notice?
Hi well today is my day 14 of induction. I have done well i think and have lost 6.5 lbs. But i dont notice it in my clothes yet. At how many lbs do you start to notice your weight loss?
:confused: |
I didn't notice until I hit 10 lbs. Not only did I begin to see it, other people began to notice too. 8 lbs.....ehh.....didn't see it. 10 lbs....my pants were a little easier to zip. I didn't have to leave them unbuttoned :eek: I was no longer bulging out of my bra :blush: and my shirts weren't quite so tight around the middle.
I know that sounds like a lot to notice two pounds later, but that's how it happened. I started on the 1st too. Keep it up. You will be rewarded. |
I have been on induction since 1/2 and have lost 7 lbs. I too was hoping my clothes would feel a little looser, but I do notice subtle things, especially in my upper arms. A sweater that was too tight in the arms a couple weeks ago feels fine now, so that's great. I was hoping my jeans would feel looser, but I'm sure I'll lose weight from the top down.
Hang in there, and so will I. You're doing great. Lucky1 |

Just how tight were they before???
I didn't notice a major change in clothes until 3 weeks or more....none of mine were tight before (isn't that sad considering the size!)....Keep on going...you'll get there, hopefully with 1 big BANG of loss......
LCing is the greatest..time is the answer! Micsing |
I have found that the more I have to lose - the more pounds I can pack into a size. The difference between a 5 and 7 (never experienced this) is far smaller than the difference between a 22 and 24. So, it takes longer if you've more to lose.
|
I could feel it a little in my tummy around 8-10 lbs, but once I hit 25 is when people started to notice... The more I lost, the more "ooh's" and "ahh's" I got. You'll notice, don't worry.
|
I think I and other's noticed it really around the 20lb. mark. We're all different.
|
I noticed at 10 lbs!
|
I started noticing slight changes around 10 lbs. It wasn't until around 20-25 lbs that clothes were fitting noticebly bigger.
|
I didn't notice a difference until I'd lost about 15 pounds, then my pants started feeling looser. I didn't need to go to a smaller size until I'd lost about 20-25 pounds. I started out in a 28 pant and I'm now in 24's. So I'm thinking until I'm in 18-16's it will take about 25 pounds to go down a size.

It's a little different for everyboody, but generally speaking, in clothes sizes, every ten pounds is a dress size or 1 inch. I started to notice at ten pounds, but after the 20 mark, it's totally noticeable for everybody
|
When you are over 200 you have to lose 20 or more lbs before things get losser. I'm 300, I lost 25lbs and it just barely shows.
Its depressing but at least I'm lighter! Also my roommate who is 540, lost 40lbs and he can't tell at all. so I count my blessings. :) |
It was about 15 lbs for me to notice about 25 lbs for others to notice on me. :)
|
I noticed it at about 10 lbs but it wasn't noticable (or at least when the comments started) until about 20 - 25. I think what made the biggest difference for me was not how many lbs but how many weeks I was consistently exercising. (that took about a month for me)
Everyone I know and care about pretty well have seen the newest version of me so I don't get the "Oh, my, you've lost weight" comments as much. I kind of miss those -- they were a nice motivator. Any body else? |
